I went to see a therapist today. He told be to consider the pros and cons of getting a job.

He said "Why don't you think about getting a job temporarily."

My reaction is "Why don't I think about getting a job permanently, at least until I am 62 - AND - since that is such a viable option, why did I even put in a claim for SSDI?"

He said, "You're able bodied and educated."

I feel very bad about myself, worse than I did before I had my appointment with him.

Sounded to me like the old "Let them eat cake."

Why doesn't every American whose without income, due to not having work, whether disabled or not, just GO GET A JOB - you know - at least, temporarily.

I don't know if it will be wise to continue seeing this therapist.

The main thing is, I feel so lousy. I feel like I have more mental turmoil than I know how to handle. I just want to go to bed.
